Focus Features has released a brand new trailer for director Laure de Clermont-Tonnerre’s drama THE MUSTANG. Get your first look below.

Roman (Matthias Schoenaerts), a convict in a rural Nevada prison who struggles to escape his violent past, is required to participate in an “outdoor maintenance” program as part of his state-mandated social rehabilitation. Spotted by a no-nonsense veteran trainer (Bruce Dern) and helped by an outgoing fellow inmate and trick rider (Jason Mitchell), Roman is accepted into the selective wild horse training section of the program, where he finds his own humanity in gentling an especially unbreakable mustang.

In 2013, Schoenaerts won the César Award for Most Promising Actor for his phenomenal work on RUST AND BONE.

Focus Features will open THE MUSTANG in select theaters on March 15, 2019 after its World Premiere at THE SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL in January.
